Background: Cold static storage and normothermic ex vivo heart perfusion are routinely limited to 6 h. This report describes intermittent left atrial (LA) perfusion that allows cardiac functional assessment in a working heart mode.
Methods: Using our adult porcine model, general anesthesia was induced and a complete cardiectomy was performed following cardioplegic arrest.

Fluctuations of consciousness and their rhythmicities have been rarely studied in patients with a disorder of consciousness after acute brain injuries. 24-h assessment of brain (EEG), behaviour (eye-opening), and circadian (clock-controlled hormones secretion from urine) functions was performed in acute brain-injured patients. The distribution, long-term predictability, and rhythmicity (circadian/ultradian) of various EEG features were compared with the initial clinical status, the functional outcome, and the circadian rhythmicities of behaviour and clock-controlled hormones.

Background: Historically, cardiac transplantation relied on cold static storage at 5 °C for ex vivo myocardial preservation. Currently, machine perfusion is the standard of care at many transplant centers. These storage methods are limited to 12 hours.

The clinical presentation of pulmonary embolism (PE) and acute coronary syndrome can be similar. We report a case of a patient presenting with antero-septal ST-segment elevation after cardiac arrest, found to have acute-PE-mimicking ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), treated with aspiration thrombectomy and catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT). A 78-year-old man was admitted with dyspnea, chest pain and tachycardia.

Introduction And Objectives: Hypertension is highly common in heart failure (HF). However, there is limited information on its prevalence, circadian variation, and relationship with the various HF phenotypes. The objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of hypertension and its patterns in HF.
